Yang Xiao walked up to the Flame Horse, stretching out his hand to gently stroke the bright red mane on its neck.

”Flame Horse, I want to take you and the Giant Eagle out of the desert, to roam the world with me, how does that sound? Of course, if you prefer to stay in the desert, that’s fine too. If you agree to come with me, nod your head.”

The Flame Horse looked at Yang Xiao, hesitated for a moment, and then gave a gentle nod.

Yang Xiao said the same to the Giant Eagle, and the Giant Eagle nodded in agreement as well.

”Good, since you both agree, I’ll tell you now that I can only take one of you with me for the time being. I want to take the Flame Horse out first, and later on, when I’ve saved up more Crystal Coins, I’ll come back for the Giant Eagle, is that okay?”

The Flame Horse neighed softly, rubbing its mouth against Yang Xiao, looking very happy.

The Giant Eagle, upon hearing that it wouldn’t be able to leave with Yang Xiao for the time being, drooped its head, looking somewhat dejected.

Yang Xiao stroked the Giant Eagle’s feathers, offering comfort.

”I’ll be back in a few days to take you away. Stay in the desert for now, follow Zhou Jian and the others, he will take care of you. Is that okay?”

The Giant Eagle lifted its head, glanced at Zhou Jian standing next to Yang Xiao, and shook its head.

As a Mutated Creature with an Enhanced Gene, it wouldn’t just follow anyone easily.

Yang Xiao wasn’t worried that the Giant Eagle would be eaten by other Monsters, but that it might be hunted by these people, especially the likes of Cai Liang’s group and Luo Manli’s group. If he wasn’t around, they might harm the Giant Eagle.

Zhou Jian nearby laughed, ”Your Giant Eagle is too loyal, not willing to follow me, huh?”

Yang Xiao found it inappropriate to have Zhou Jian guard the Giant Eagle, so he said:

”Then I’ll trouble you to bring a Monster corpse for the Giant Eagle every day. It will stay near the Genetic Store, where no one dares to hunt and kill it.”

Zhou Jian nodded and agreed.

After communicating with the Flame Horse and Giant Eagle for a while, that very night, Yang Xiao gave the owner of the Genetic Store 1 million Crystal Coins to redeem the Flame Horse.

The owner of the Genetic Store was somewhat surprised by Yang Xiao’s action, considering that spending a million to redeem a pet’s freedom was unprecedented for Yang Xiao.

Liu Yiyi and Gong Yu had also thought about taking the Flame Horse and Giant Eagle out of the desert, but they could hardly save up any evolution resources, so how could they spend it on pets?

That night, Yang Xiao fell asleep leaning on the Giant Eagle, with the Flame Horse nestled close by as well.

The next morning, Yang Tong brought the Flame Horse through the Transmission Array back to Nanmu City.

When Zhou Jian, Cai Liang, Luo Manli, and others saw Yang Xiao entering the Transmission Array with the Flame Horse, they were all dumbfounded.

”Holy shit, Yang Xiao can actually take a Mutant Monster out of the desert?”

”Doesn’t that break the rules?”

”Break the rules? Did you know Yang Xiao paid 1 million Crystal Coins last night as a ransom for the Flame Horse? Do you have that much?”

”Holy shit, that’s truly big-spender style!”

”That’s just stupid. With that kind of money, why not just upgrade your genes instead?”

”That’s what you call not understanding the world of the rich!”

”Pshh!”

...

Xiao Zhe, Long Yongjun, Huang Wen, Qin Yu, Deng Xiao, Chen Fei, Dai Yun, Feifei, Chen Lu, and others were all waiting in the meeting room on the second floor of the Century Commercial Building.

As Yang Xiao stepped out of the Transmission Array, his first sight was the two Giant Eagles near the plaza. Having not seen them for some time, these two Giant Eagles seemed to have grown quite a bit.

People like Huang Wen didn’t eat much meat from hunted Mutated Creatures; most of it probably went to the two Giant Eagles.

Upon seeing the Flame Horse, the two Giant Eagles immediately ran over, neighing joyfully.

It seems that animals can have friendships too.

When Huang Wen and the others saw Yang Xiao return, each of them revealed a delighted smile.

Yang Xiao spread his arms wide and joked:

”Ladies, aren’t you going to give me a hug?”

With light laughter, they all rushed over for a solid bear hug with Yang Xiao.

Huang Wen and the others had been concerned about Yang Xiao for the ten-plus days they hadn’t seen him.

They had also heard about the fight between Yang Xiao and Cai Liang’s group from Zongli City, which had them quite worried. If not for their low evolution level, which prevented them from entering the middle of the desert, they would have run to find him long ago.

From the aura emanating from their bodies, Yang Xiao could tell they had grown a lot, with each of their Genetic Attributes significantly improved.

After chatting for a bit, Yang Xiao felt reassured about the progress Huang Wen and others made in the desert. He indicated that after this month, Xiao Zhe, Long Yongjun, Xia Luo, Zhou Qiang, and others should also go to the desert to train. In the future, they would take turns, eight people at a time.

”Alright, today’s gathering is to discuss the task of taking down Shanyun City.”

”Yang Xiao, after this period of concentrated evolution, Xia Luo is already at the Primordial Gene Advanced stage, we have reached 20 people at the Intermediate stage, and 105 people at the Primary Stage; our city level has already advanced to Level 15.”

”Level 15? That fast?”

Everyone gasped in surprise.

Xiao Zhe looked at Yang Xiao and said lightly:

”I asked the Genetic Store’s Gu Bo, and Gu Bo said that the main reason is because of Yang Xiao, who is now at the Enhanced Gene Primary Level. Did you know that?”

”Holy shit, boss, when did you break through to the Enhanced Gene Stage?” exclaimed Long Yongjun, who cursed out loud immediately.

Even those who knew Yang Xiao well, like Huang Wen and Qin Yu, were stunned, looking at Yang Xiao as if they had seen an alien.

Yang Xiao could only laugh awkwardly, then was met with eye rolls from the girls.

”So disloyal, breaking through to the Enhanced Gene Stage and not even telling us.”
